Hydration & Healing: Fluids That Help in Cancer Care
Patients diagnosed with cancer require adequate hydration in the course of treatment as it manages side effects resulting from treatment and promotes homeostasis within the body. Electrolyte fluids, herbal teas, and smoothies with nutrient-rich contents serve as side aids in the food recovery and cellular recovery processes. Hydration optimally increases renal function while reducing fatigue and nausea generally, thereby improving the quality of life for patients undergoing cancer treatment.
